O============================================================================O
I don't really know is this walkthrough will be helpful to anyone, I'll be the
first to admit this is a very straightforward game that rewards practice and
certainly doesn't tailor to well to text best help. I imagine the main
purpose of this guide will be for those wondering how to unlock everything in
the game, or those who want more information on getting new levels and such,
so I've been very sure to include both of those in the guide as well.

O============================================================================O
Auto Pilot - When you pick up the auto-pilot, the game will drive for you for
the next five seconds or so. The game is better than you, don't worry.
Shield - The shield protects you from taking any damage however if the shield
itself takes to much damage it will disappear before it runs out.
Turbo - This is basically just a speed boost, a huge one at that, arguably
the best item you can hope to pick up from a pickup icon.
Mines - This is the five blue icon that drops five spiked mines behind you.
When a ship hits the mines it will be temporarily slowed down.
Bomb - An enormous bomb that you can drop behind your ship and blow up
the competition behind you. Explodes when hit or when even too close.
Rockets - A basic projectile weapon that fires three rockets forward in a
somewhat spread out pattern to try and hit the enemy.
Missile - A targeting system is included in the missile, wait until the lock
on turns red and fire the missile to almost guarantee a hit.
Disruption Bolt - Fires a wave of energy at an enemy ship to temporarily
reverse the controls and disable the airbrake on their ship.
Plasma - Basically this is just a massively powerful attack that shoots
forward, the downside is that you need to charge it up first.
Quake - When fired this will shake and blast the ground hitting all opponents
no matter what they do to dodge, for quite a ways ahead of you.

When this course starts out, try to stay with the left wall so you can hit the
booster. Let yourself gradually glide right as you approach the next turn for
the item pickup there. Stay on the right side, as you enter the tunnel as
well. There's kind of a somewhat dangerous S turn coming up, the easiest
thing to do is stay left when the path curves right and be ready to slide left
as it curves in the other direction again. There's nothing really dangerous
about the drop coming up here, just try to remain as level as possible.
Around the next corner there's kind of a bumpy section of the track that can
be rather nasty on the higher speeds. While you can try to ease the bumps by
moving the D-pad up and down a little, the important thing is to remain as
straight as possible, even a bit of a curve could bounce you into a wall.
Stick to the right for the remainder of the track, through the tunnel as well.
At the next drop aim yourself for the centre of the track where both the
pickup and the booster can be found. It's an easy curve to the end from here.

This is a more industrial and darker course than the previous one. The race
begins with a right hand curve, try to stay on the outside so you can nail the
booster coming around. On the downward slope you'll have to sig-zag (easier
with the sideshift) to grab all the pickups and then be ready to make a hard
right at the turn. At this point get ready to jam on those airbrakes, one of
the most dangerous turns you've ever seen is coming up. Hold whatever
airbrake button it is you have configured as you come into the left curve,
preferably as slow as possible. When you come out of it stay right for the
double booster and be ready to sideshift left at this S shaped corner coming
up. This whole tunnel kind of sways back and forth so you'll need to kind of
position yourself in the middle, if you try to weave left and right too
sharply, eventually one of the turns is going to get you. Outside of the
tunnel there's a gradual turn to the left, avoid breaking too much, you're
actually more likely to oversteer here into the right side rather than the
left. Coming up after this is kind of a jump. On the lower speed leagues you
can pretty much just hop over the edge but on the higher speeds there's a cool
trick you can do. Wile in mid-air tap left-right-left and you'll do a barrel
roll, upon landing you'll get a speed boost which can come in handy, that is
if you can keep contol. The finish line is just around the corner.

You've got quite a large gradual right curve starting at the beginning with
items and boosters placed periodically around the track. In fact you're
likely going to find yourself enjoying the relaxing light turn when suddenly
you're hit by what is almost a U-turn. As you can see it coming, prepare
yourself early. Jam on the airbrake left before you even reach the turn and
hopefully you can kind of spin yourself on the track so you don't slide
forward into the wall, then just accelerate from there without actually
crashing. Stick to the centre of the track after this to go over the next
little bump. Staying in control here gets progressively harder on the faster
difficulties so you'll need to be good at straightening yourself out before
leaping. Curve around left when you reach the bottom and once again centre
yourself on the track. It's not difficult at this next point but it is the
first area of track you'll find that does not have any walls, so you risk
falling off the edge if you're out of control (you'll just be thrown back on
the track with a bit of damage to your car.) Coming up after this is a larger
and slightly sharper right turn then the start. Try to modulate your brake
use so you can stay in the middle of the track and grab the pickup as you go
along. Hit the booster and watch out for the lack of walls at the top as you
get ready for a huge drop. Once again, left-right-left as you fall through
the air, just be ready to deal with that speed boost when you have to go
through the tunnel and kind of navigate an S shape after that, but it should
have worn off by then. Coming up past this is the finish line.

A somewhat prettier course than most, this one starts you off with a not-so-
pretty, dangerous left, right, left S turn that ends with a nice straightaway.
When you get into the tunnel try to stick around the middle since it starts
weaving again and then suddenly you're faced with a very dangerous and sharp
left turn, you'll definitely need the airbrakes for this one, be ready to put
them on early. Coming out of the tunnel soon after is a drop. See if you can
barrel rool off the drop and use the boost when you land to boost yourself
into the middle of the track and hit the double boosters. Be ready for a
sharp, albeit wide, right turn after this, the more you are able to stick to
the right the better since you can nail a booster coming out of the turn. The
remainder of the track has you weaving though some dangerous back and forths
that have become somewhat of a recurring thing on this track. Remember to use
the sideshift button as well as the airbrake to try and minimize the amount of
actual turning you do, that way you not only get to maintain more speed but
you will also maintain better control. It's win-win right there.

Quite a lengthy course we have here. Even got some nice rain effects going
on. Navigate the first corner and get ready for a fork in the path. The
right fork has nothing while the left fork has an item pickup, both are the
same length so head left (the right path actually has an item near the end,
perhaps it doesn't make that much of a difference.) Around the next turn
stick with the left wall so you can hit the double booster rather than the
single one. This whole next part has you going along kind of a corkscrewing
road, anyone who knows anything about being out on the water knows the the
middle of the boat is least affected by the rock of the water, the same
applies for the middle of the road and should keep you from losing control.
Another fork here, the path splits a bit but both directions have an item and
a booster so choose based on your turning preference, personally I always go
left for whatever reason. Coming up is a long right turn following by a
straight and a somewhat sharper left turn, use your airbrake for that one. At
the bottom, sideshift through the S pattern and get ready to do a barrel off
the drop toward the finish line, staying in control is no problem here.

o------------------------o---------------------------------------------------o
At the very start of this track you're hit with a perilous right-left
combination that could very well have you dragging the wall coming out of the
left turn. It may be early in the race but hit that damn airbrake if you want
to avoid the wall here. The straight should give you a hell of a lot of
speed, it's followed by a somewhat deceptive S curve that seems light but then
the left turn gets a lot sharper. Better to brake sooner than later and begin
turning sharper on the left turn to avoid sliding into the wall. Coming up
next is everyone's favourite corner. I can't give an exact timing on this
since it depends on the speed and the league but let me just say into order to
make this corner you need to brake VERY early. Even before those yellow
arrows painted on the road, jam right on the analog nub and hold the R trigger
and if you're lucky you'll do a 180 and be pointing straight in the correct
direction. Get ready to keep your finger on the airbrake as you navigate a
couple of sharp S turns leading up to a tunnel. There's kind of a bump in
this tunnel that can have a tendency to actually bump you over the edge of the
track on higher speeds, be sure to memorize this turn and try to either stick
to the right side, or airbrake hard to the left just as you hit it. There's
one more difficult C shaped turn you'll have to take before the finish.

o------------------------o---------------------------------------------------o
My personal favourite course, this one can get pretty extreme. Icy conditions
await but you won't really notice yourself sliding around or anything...
well... any more than normal at least. Around the first turn you're already
lining yourself up for a jump. This one is perfect to do a left-right-left
barrel roll over just be ready to airbrake right (or better yet try to land
pointing as right as possible) to maximize your speed and avoid hitting the
wall. Another couple of corners that can get pretty dangerous, especially the
right turn with the windmills and such. After this comes a bumpy section, but
it's not just straight up bumpy, the left and right sides are unbalanced so
get yourself in the centre otherwise there's almost no way to stay in control.
Going into the tunnel, nail the booster and try to land on or near the one on
the right side, airbraking right as you hit it to line yourself up with the
tunnel exit. It may seem obvious, but even though this part zig-zags back and
forth there's no reason for you to do that as well, there's a perfectly easy
straight line through the whole thing, over a small drop to the finish.

o------------------------o---------------------------------------------------o
Another impressive track that does indeed take place at the top of the world.
The whole thing is on a very thin path and is probably the hardest track in
the game to play on the higher speed difficulties. After the first corner
there's a lengthy left curve that goes around with no walls except for tiny
sections which are luckily at the more dangerous parts. After this comes a
very sharp right turn that requires early airbraking otherwise you're surely
going to slam into the far wall. Timing is critical there, again the path is
thin so you'll need quite a bit of practice. Use whatever speed boosters you
can get on the straight and be ready for a gradual S shaped curve followed by
another hard right that requires early braking. This leads you around to the
finish without any big surprises, but practice definitely makes perfect here.

The first of the four digital crazy colour tracks! Try to stay around the
middle for the first zig-zagging turn. On the higher difficulties watch out
for the booster on the right that follows this section, it has a habit of
launching you off the track. More zig-zags follow, the sideshift assigned to
the L button really helps for these things, it really lets you keep control of
your vehicle. Line yourself up in the middle after this part so you can
safely drop over the bumps and jam left at the bottom. Just before the
finishing line comes another zig-zagging path, there's no way to just stick it
out in the middle and shift, you have to airbrake each one of these turns to
the best of your ability, there's just so damn many of them.

Surprisingly this is actually one of the simplest courses in the game, but it
is by no means easy. There's one basic principal that pretty much applies to
the entire course since it's practically the same thing over and over again.
What this course is comprised of is a bunch of straightaways followed by a
sharp turn. Straight, turn, straight, turn... you get the idea, over and
over. For each one of these you building speed and then tap the airbrake
along with pushing the analog nub in the direction you're going for each turn.
The most dangerous turn is actually the first one but you won't notice until
later laps when you come into it with speed, you'll probably need to hold the
airbrake for that one. The only other noteworthy thing is a drop at the end
which makes a great place to do a barrel roll and gain speed.

This course is actually really neat, difficult but neat. The thing you will
notice most is the parts of the course where the track just ends and you drop
down to a seemingly different track going in another direction. To do this
you need to airbrake hard and predict which way to turn either my memorization
or by the somewhat ambiguous arrows that aren't always easy to read. When the
course starts out, make a hard left then curve around the elongated S shape.
You have to be ready to make a hard right at the top of the track so you can
not only aim yourself for the booster, but also straighten yourself out so you
don't fly off the edge in the wrong direction. Drop down and quickly brake
right to land on the next part of the track. Another sharp right is coming up
followed almost immediately by a sharp left, sharp right, sharp left etc.
Finally you're on a normal path again that drops over the edge from a barrel-
roll-worthy height and sends you around a corner. There is a BLIND hard left
drop coming up that is very difficult to predict if you don't know it's
coming, be ready for it. Everything else is simple to the end.

This is another fairly basic course actually. There's pretty much only two
things you need to watch out for, and they're both the same basic idea. You
start at the beginning going around a pretty basic curve that leads up to a
deceptively difficult right turn of almost ninety degrees. You'll really have
to airbrake early for that one. Following it and another few turns there's a
long straight path leading right down to a gap with a booster in the middle of
the track. After making it across and turning right, ahead of you is the
second deceptively difficult turn, a ninety degree left turn that is blocked
from view by a number of buildings. Once you make it around this turn then
you are home free pretty much, the finish line should be just ahead.

The track you can get by either wirelessly connecting and obtaining, or
downloading off the internet and putting on your PSP via USB. Instructions
for setting it up can be found elsewhere in the guide. What makes this track
difficult is the fact that the walls aren't straight, they zig-zag, meaning
you have to stay in the middleof the track to avoid being suddenly attacked by
the walls! Well it's not quite that bad. Start out on the right side to hit
the double boost and then move toward the middle down the hill and around the
gradual right curve. At the top shift over to the left side of the track and
get ready to sideshift as the S turn comes up. Tap the airbrake button and
you turn right just past the short overpass and it leads around to a downhill
staightaway (which happens to make a great place to use the booster item in
time trial, the bumps might even let you get a barrel-roll in there.) There's
a couple of boosters at the bottom. When you reach the left turn, start
turning left but then change to turn right even before you finish the turn so
that you're pointing right when you drop over the edge and you're able to land
in control and keep going right around the corner to reach the finish line.

What is Zone? That's a question you might be asking, it's somewhat hard to
decipher what's going on, at least at first. Basically Zone is a challenge
with no set number of laps, no time, no opponents, just a very very fast car.
This car is so fast in fact, that there is no limit to its speed. The car
will get faster and faster as the trial continues. The question of course is
when does it end? It ends when your car takes enough damage to be destroyed,
its health is not infinite. Your score in Zone mode will get progressively
higher automatically without you actually doing anything, you score is not
based on distance traveled but rather on how long you can stay alive, so
you're not looking for ways to increase you speed, on the contrary the slower
the better. The problem with this is that you don't even drive, there is no
way to take off the accelerator so all you can do is utilize the analog nub
and airbrake to try and control yourself on the course as best you possibly
can. Every five zones your car will increase its maximum speed by quite a bit
making it that much harder to stay alive. Good luck with this one.

If you want to obtain the new Gamma track Staten Park, along with the new
Tigron ship and an additional skin as well all you need to do is the
following: Download the zip file from the link below (WinZip or WinRAR
required) then simply place it in your PSP's SAVEDATA folder, that's it.

I have absolutely nothing to do with this link, if the link is down by the
time you are reading the guide, you're free to email me but there's nothing I
can do about it. I'm sure it's not hard to find elsewhere anyway, use Google.

| The Browser (000C0) |
O============================================================================O
I would not presume to speak for one who had used the browser as I have no
access to a wireless router, but indeed, it is true that using Wipeout Pure
you can in fact surf the internet on your PSP. You can do most things, surf
web pages, check your email, even use ICQ if I'm not mistaken. Things like
streaming audio/video and java/flash games will give you a problem though.
Anyway like I said I'm not expert, but here area couple of links that should
get you started. At the time of this guide being written there is a great
topic on the GameFAQs Wipeout board stickied at the top that explains all the
Q&A's about the Wipeout Browser, you'll surely want to check it out:
